Back up Outlook PST files with or without Microsoft Outlook running.

Most of our competitors' software is backing up Outlook by simply copying PST files or making their shadow copies. If Outlook is open this leads to many problems. PST files are copied without the latest changes because Outlook is locking up the PST file or the backup software utility is waiting for Outlook to close. Shadow copies of backed up PST files include information that has been saved after the latest close of Outlook only. Safe PST Backup uses sophisticated technology to access Outlook items directly and backs up the latest changes even if Outlook is open and you are working on it.
